Ilia's thoughts were frantic, incredibly so. This current situation wasn't something he had expected to ever happen.

'I'm screwed, I'm screwed,' his voluminous body trembled and jiggled as he paced around.

'Shit, shit! She'll definitely want to kill me! Wait… what if I make a warrior's promise to chase the killer? The Ossarch and the council members should want to honor it,' Ilia pondered hard.

Politics had never been his strong suit. In fact, it was his father who had pushed him to try and befriend the third prince, despite his reluctance.
